To solve an Integer Programming problem, we can use the Branch and Bound algorithm: # IP: a minimization integer program with constraints and objective function cost def branch_and_bound (IP): 1. Push ...

Example 8.9: Linear Programming The two-phase method for linear programming can be used to solve the problem A routine written in IML to solve this problem follows. The approach appends slack, surplus ...

Data for a linear programming problem resembles the data for side constraints and nonarc variables supplied to PROC NETFLOW when solving a constrained network problem. It is also very similar to the ...
